Plugin to allow visitors to subscribe based on category of posts

== Description ==
Surprisingly there is no plugin available to allow users to subscribe for posts on a WordPress website based on category.

 A subscriber for one category might not want to receive posts of another category. This plugin will help you to do that.

 Once a subscriber is added for a particular category, he/she will receive emails as soon as a post is published in that category.





** Features **

1. Add Subscribers for their desired category

2. Use Widget or Short Code to display Subscriber Form

3. Add the Subscribers manually, or upload in batch from a CSV file.

4. Email will be sent to all subscribers as soon as a post is published in that category

3. Add Subscribers in  St Category Email Subscribe > Subscribers (See How to use in Other Notes)
